matte31 Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Its easy.1. get photoshop2. get a dds plugin for photoshop ( since most of the reskin files are dds )3. put the reskin files, you just drag the file into PS( usually in model/vehicle folder , ex models/vehicle/fire department/rw.dds )4. make the reskin that you want. 5. save the file, in this case as dds.6. put the dds file back to its original folder and overwrite the old one. DONE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aitor Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Without going into details:Covert the dds file* to a photoshop or paint file (with a program called DDS Converter 2, is in the downloads section: http://forum.emergency-planet.com/index.php?/files/file/295-dds-converter/), edit with one of them -or another program similar- and after editing convert again to dds file and save it in the place that was, overwriting the original file. And you have your own skin *That file is located for example for doing a reskin of an ambulance in LA mod in Emergency 4\Mods\Los Angeles Mod v2.0\Models\Vehicles\01 LA AmbulanceHope this can help you PS: for more info see the tutorials or just ask.Edit: matte31 you explained before me, when I started writing it wasn´t posted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erfd Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 This goes through steps of unlocking files if locked, etc if you need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
